Are you watching Abdullah?

[DI36O]

Would you rather risk our club paying 100k a week in England and risk getting relegated only to end up in league 1 in administration? Or appoint a d, o, f who can scout markets abroad and bring in top players like berge with wages we can afford?? A bit like the wolves model??

You think Wolves are paying peanuts for their Portuguese imports?

 

[Roygbiv]

Maggie Thatcher, Maggie Thatcher, your boys took one hell of a beating

 

[Hblockblade]

Thats hit the nail...... Get it sorted now not be farting around in July August

I'd love to see this happen ASAP but what decent manager wants a relegation on his cv, bit like wilder didn't

 

[alcoblade]

How do you know that he was sacked?

Well there’s plenty of discussion about compensation. And Bettis said something like “we decided after after much deliberation ”.

It’s pretty clear the club wanted it. Less so how much Wilder did.

Wolves have a billionaire owner so our model won't be like that lol

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

So who's fault is it?

Today's result isn't his fault. The decision to let Wilder go and not allowing him to have full reign of his own policies next season is completely his fault

 

[JJBlade]

Only money wilder has spent is the premier league money Wilder earned none of Abdullahs coz he ain’t got none he’s taken mortgages out against Bramall lane and taken loans out on our parachute payments to buy other club so if you think this is all wilders fault your wrong The man loves SUFC as much as we all do

Why do people think that Chairman spend tens of millions of pounds of their own money every season.

None of them would have anything left after 5 years

They make their clubs competitive with sponsorship deals, good academies, good scouting, buying smaller than what they are selling for, without major upheavals to their style, tactics and way of playing.

We lose one player at the beginning of the season and the whole thing turns to shit

 

[Rodley]

But we weren't in the bottom 6 in the promotion year were we?

8th bottom, I was misled or misread the article. It’s peanuts and we need to be higher, do you agree?

 

[backfour]

The players have chucked that one today. No ones fault other than them.

New managers got to learn how bad some of them are now

 

[Carlton Blade]

8th bottom, I was misled or misread the article. It’s peanuts and we need to be higher, do you agree?

I'd imagine that £ amount woukd be higher in the list now. And I'll believe we are cutting the wage bill to £15m or less when it happens. If it does then fair enough. I just doubt it

 

[Prem owner needed]

There is also plenty of discussions that CW tendered his resignation again?

Whatever it is, we’ve come to this decision. We changing horses. Continuity was giving Wilder his few loans and keeping the structure. That’s done and gone, so now we’re talking about the future.

If we’re changing horses the clock starts on the parachute payments and we’ve a few seasons until our leverage in the market / huge financial advantage evaporates. If we’re changing horses we’ll need to implement a new system and completely rebuild the squad. The only way to achieve that is to invest resource, probably more than under CW, into playing personnel. And do it quickly. If we’re in it for the long haul, with small, incremental squad investment, we’ll soon become another unsustainable Championship club rather than a Championship club with relative wealth and significant buying power (parachute payments).

The right decision is to invest whilst we have the opportunity to do so. Over to you Prince.

I think some people are very one sided at the minute without the full facts TBH.

The club is fucked either way. There's been unrest before but not like this. The complete and utter inability of the adults involved to figure out how to work together, plus losing 29 of 39 league games has broken what had been built.

The rebuild was already required. Players had to be sold, they always do when income decreases by £90m. I wanted it to be Wilder, it's not to be.

We've spent £200m+ on wages and transfer fees plus all the other costs. Owner isn't rich. Pots are empty

Where are the parachute payments?

We can’t be going down to the Championship and have exactly the same financial circumstances as we had when we came up.

 

[Toronto Blade]

Does the Prince even have enough to get out of this mess he has used his tv money. He hardly had enough to get the club from McCabe.

In which case, they had no financial package to put together, and no decision to not “take lightly”.

But they did. Go figure.

Had this last night. Not worth the pain.

It’s done I guess. Now’s the time to plot for a quick return.

We won't. We'll have a bigger wage bill.

Totally agree, but that is not going to happen under this owner. The current squad is not as bad as people believe at championship level (in my opinion), but does need some athleticism and a bit more creativity adding. The issue will be just what we sell, but Berge aside, who would want any of any current squad? The strikers are not prem standard, the goal keeper has just started to turn it around, but had plenty off days before, the back line are all to slow for this level, and the midfield is a complete and utter joke at the minute, so what players will be sold??

 

[Rodley]

We won't. We'll have a bigger wage bill.

I don’t know why we’re having the conversation Carlts. Is your point we shouldn’t try invest to bounce back or we can’t? We’ve supressed the wages whilst we’ve been in the PL, what was the point of doing that unless it was to give us the financial flexibility to give it a good go in the Champ?

Just summat to do rod tbh.

I think it was fees or wages, we'll spend about £100m in total each season. And we went fees first.

In terms of future finances I have no idea how hard the Pandemic plus spending on Berge and Brewster hurt future budgets. But if we sell £30m+ of players with no reinvestment then I'll agree with you 100% that it's been mismanaged. We'll have to see

 

[Lane Ender]

The Arab is way out his depth in this situation he will be weighing up a takeover for a Swiss 2nd Division outfit.

 

[Greenblades]

Well done for ruining our club

Did he sign £50m plus of players on the bench none of which could make our starting 11 that got beat 5-0. I’m sure he’s made mistakes but we cannot lay all of this mess at his door. Best transfer window ever was the message I remember. Totally get the frustration btw.

 

[Prem owner needed]

Agreed about the owner. Not what we need, but I don't think he will hang around for long like the last family who didn't have the financial position to run a FC either.

 

[nopigfansintown]

Sticking the boot in? Just cause I don't follow your narrative? You sycophants are a cult, you really are.

The cult of the Prince...

Que ? WTF ?

There are all sorts of clauses entered into contracts, like when CW was apparently leaving for a club up north after season 1. He could and is most likely being paid a package to leave the club, even if he has resigned.

I follow Sheffield United pal, not one individual. Make no mistake.
